Classic LRs are coplanar so the yokes will align. The Puma-engined ones are no, since the engine and transmission are raised at the front. As a result, Tdci propshafts will have the yokes misaligned intentionally, and will differ from TD5 and earlier even if the same length.
I'm afraid it is too wet for me to crawl under the truck to look for alignment marks at the moment.
thank you for the coplanar information.
both those props are 110 tdci props
from the 20deg comment and the marks i have on the two here i think it is to the mark under the rubber, just that this one is not happy!! Cheers
